Since its launch, the Ford Maverick has been one of the hottest new vehicles on the planet, with eager customers lining up to order the compact pickup. This doesn’t really come as a surprise given the fact that many people are looking for inexpensive, economical modes of transportation, and the compact pickup segment itself essentially died off years ago, only to be reborn with the launch of the Maverick and Hyundai Santa Cruz. Regardless, as the 2023 model prepares to launch, 2022 Ford Maverick dealer stock continues to turn in record time, according to the automaker’s most recent sales report.
2022 Ford Maverick dealer stock is turning in just six days, which is a tad slower than the four days it took to turn back in March, but it’s still impressively quick, regardless. What makes this figure even more impressive is the fact that the Maverick is also one of the most commonly marked-up new vehicles on the market, with most dealer stock listed at far more than MSRP.
The 2022 Ford Maverick is also conquesting customers from other brands at a rapid rate, with most of those owners coming from compact sedans and even crossovers – not pickups. Much of that can be attributed to the Maverick’s excellent utility, as well as its bargain basement price tag and impressive fuel economy ratings.
Regardless, getting one’s hands on a new Maverick is still proving to be a difficult task, particularly for those that have placed an order for the particular model. Order banks for the 2023 Maverick closed after just one week due to a large number of carryover 2022 orders and a total of 86,000 new ones, while some 2022 Maverick Hybrid orders will now be canceled and pushed to the 2023 model year, as Ford Authority reported yesterday.

Is the Ford Maverick coming out as a plug-in hybrid in the future?
What’s the big deal? It’s a cheaply made girly man’s “truck” with 5 recalls all ready. 2022 models already showing undercarriage rust. The rear suspension will make you LOL. People are paying 5K+ over MSRP for used. You’ll see real depreciation on this vehicle down the road.
The BIG deal is you can get in to the top Lariat Hybrid model for less than 35K with gas mileage over 41MPG. Its not for everyone but is clearly hitting a sweet spot for many. I do agree with you in that people paying 7-10k over MSRP will likely live to regret that choice.
Dont care for depreciation if one decides to drive car for many many years. I placed an order for two of them when orders opened in september. Took eco boost and hybrid. Im taking first one that arrives and my kid turnes 16 in little over one year. She will get the second one.
Reason for me buying is its truck looking like. Good moving some stuff and its amazing on Gas.
My infiniti is a dragon, barely do 10miles a gallon in city and about 15 to20 hwy. I spend 800$ on gas a month. With the money i burn on gas those 2 trucks will pay for themselves
Sounds like somebody’s jealous!😏
Not everyone is so insecure they have to drive a pickup truck the size of a bus to feel something.
Poor Buster, his alpha manhood is threatened by a girly pickup truck.
After the roll out in "21 and all the trouble with supply chains, why would you roll out 22,s with even more problems. People waiting 2 years for this vehicle...and now offering the truck in Brazil...I just dont understand
For the lack of a better word, greed.
What is assembly time from start to finish on the Maverick? Are they running 3 shifts at the assembly plant?
My uncle ordered in november of 21 and recieved in July of 22.
I ordered mine in september of 22 and hoping to get at least one of.them by summer of 23
I ordered Maverick July 7th 2021
Just little over a month ago Ford
sent me email; my order for 2023 Maverick was received
said I was one of the first to get 2023
I never ordered a 2023 my thoughts are I will receive a 2023 in place of the 2022
hope it's the same price and dealer doesn't get greedy!
If your Maverick order was converted from a 2022 to a 2023, there will be a price increase however, Ford was offering a Private Cash Offer (PCO) to those customers who had to convert their orders to the next model year. Make sure you talk to your dealer about the PCO. This should take the sting out of the price increase.
Ford is proving it can not capitalize on vehicles when they can. They can't make enough and are not nimble enough to build enough vehicles to fill the pipeline. (Lots are still empty) You can see that in Ford's stock price which is constantly lower than it should be for making such winners. The undercarriage is a Ford thing that's even seen on these expensive F150's. Sad isn't it. Its fantastic they offered something that's wanted its really awful they can't fill the orders.
Ford is going to allocate the lion's share of critical components to the Bronco and F-150 where they make far more profit than they do on the lowly Maverick. They will turn out a small number of Mavericks compared to the Bronco/F-150/Explorer lines which generate far more profit.
Show me a Manufacturer that is any different than Ford right now.
Think you meant the Hyundai Santa Cruz, not the Santa Fe. The Santa Cruz is the Maverick competitor, not the Santa Fe.
I’ve worked on automobiles my whole life. And I love gadgets. And I like going 500 miles on 13.8 gallons of gas. I’m older now I can get in and out of the thing no problem. The price was right so I loaded it up with luxury and comfort. It will have a great resale value. You don’t have to plug it in. The climate change hoax people must hate that lol. If the president in name only didn’t destroy the world wide supply chain and destroy our energy independence, it wouldn’t be that popular of a truck. But it is! I love it🥰
Really? You’re gonna insert politics in a automobile blog? Get a life!, Pops
climate change hoax? president in name only? who destroyed the supply chain? you sound like you have a really firm grip on reality.
Agree. This guy is a bozo.
Get a life. Just another cult member repeating what you are told.
why is there a single dealer stock unit, with tens of thousands having ordered the truck sight unseen and been waiting (impatiently) and being given every single excuse they can think of. why are those units not being redirected to those orders. this is really infuriating. once the orders are filled then the dealers can have units to sell at the ridiculously over MSRP price gouging!!! Really!! and Ford is going to brag about how fast these trucks are turning at the dealerships, only someone wanting to make themselves look good to their boss would make this info available to the starving customers that are waiting months/years for their orders.
The pricing, markups and wait time on the Mavericks and Broncos are absolutely insane but sadly, driven by those who will write a check for ANY amount just to get what they want. Went by the local dealership yesterday for an adjustment on my new Mustang (which I ordered for MSRP by the way). One yellow loaded big tire and toys Bronco 4 door on the showroom floor with a 25k "Market Value Add-On". Final price...$81,000!! If that's not insane, I don't know what is. But again, it just arrived from the Factory and will be gone shortly as this area has more "endless pocketbooks" than price conscious consumers. And the cycle continues.
What they need to do is put some small in-wheel motors in the back. They don't have to be strong. Even 30hp each would be fine. The improvement on dirt roads and off-road would be night and day. No, it would not be incredible off-road, but it should be able to handle real world off-road need, and that matters. For those for which off-road is sport, and you look for the worst possible trails, this will never be a good fit.
You might look at the personal ATV market sir.
